Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 109 Lin Qiang's Trail

Of course, the attribute of the ability user didn't matter. What mattered was that because his mental strength reached eighty, Li Chenzhou's total time using the Fog of War doubled, reaching twenty seconds.

Although it was still measured in seconds, too much could happen in twenty seconds during combat, especially since Li Chenzhou was only at level two. Each time he leveled up in the future, his attributes would double, and the duration of the Fog of War would naturally double as well.

In addition, what excited Li Chenzhou even more was that his skill, Fatal Strike, had been upgraded to level two. Not only did it ignore a quarter of the target's defense, and the distance reached ten meters, but the cooldown time was also reduced by two minutes.

Each time he obtained a skill upgrade, there were two possibilities. One was to raise the level of an existing skill. If there were multiple skills, one of them would be randomly upgraded. The other was to obtain a new skill. Obviously, this time, Li Chenzhou had upgraded one of his existing skills.

It was hard to distinguish which was better. Having a new skill was certainly good because each skill had an independent cooldown time. Having one more skill meant having one more method in combat.

But upgrading an existing skill would naturally increase its power. For example, if Fatal Strike was continuously upgraded and could reach max level, perhaps it could passively ignore the target's defense completely, and the cooldown time would only be a few seconds, making it a divine skill.

Even with just this one skill, Li Chenzhou could completely make himself invincible. This was the so-called "one trick to rule them all."

However, whether a skill was upgraded or a new skill was obtained, it was all random and not something he could choose. So, Li Chenzhou didn't need to worry about it!

Just as Li Chenzhou was studying his attributes and skills, the car suddenly stopped. Li Chenzhou quickly looked up and saw that the Grizzly Bear in front had stopped.

"They left from here?"

Li Chenzhou got out of the car and saw that Grizzly Bear was looking at a section of the highway guardrail that had been removed. Below the guardrail was an auxiliary road that extended in another direction! So he asked.

"It should be them. I saw the tire tracks on the ground!"

Grizzly Bear replied.

"Tire tracks?"

Li Chenzhou was stunned. He turned around and looked back. The highway was all asphalt, so you could see tire tracks?

"It's this way!"

Grizzly Bear pointed to the roadbed of the highway and the auxiliary road:

"See these tire tracks? It should be their car, but...the number is a bit more than when they left!"

Li Chenzhou looked at the deep and messy tire tracks on the roadbed. He wasn't good at this kind of thing. At least, he couldn't tell how many cars made these tracks. But since Grizzly Bear said so, it should be the case, because he had no reason to deceive him.

Moreover, retreating from the exit highway, it seemed best to leave from here because they could change direction to leave the city. They couldn't go all the way back to the city along the highway, right?

"It seems their departure wasn't easy either!"

Looking at the dozens of zombie corpses left on the auxiliary road and the roadbed, Li Chenzhou said softly. Then he opened the electronic map, looked at the direction of the auxiliary road, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, marking it on the map: 138 Reading Network.

"They should be going to Dawang Village! This road leads there! And there's a river next to Dawang Village, which is a good place to build a base, but...they have too few people!"

"You...you're not planning to chase them first, are you?"

Grizzly Bear looked at Li Chenzhou nervously because he knew that Li Chenzhou was always unwilling to let his enemies off easily. He had to kill them all to feel at ease, just like the few people he killed in the hotel.

Therefore, Grizzly Bear was worried that Li Chenzhou would choose to chase Lin Qiang and the others first, which would delay a lot of time.

"Of course not. Although I want to solve them as soon as possible, I'll still go to Qin Ting Hotel first. I promised before!"

Li Chenzhou looked at Grizzly Bear and said.

"Phew! Thank you! Let's go then!"

Grizzly Bear finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, fearing that Li Chenzhou would change his mind, he immediately turned around and ran towards the car.

They set off again, speeding all the way towards Qin Ting Hotel. Occasionally, they saw some cars coming towards them, passing them and heading out of the city.

"It seems that the extra cars are these!"

Looking at these cars, Duan Lei, who was driving, suddenly said.

"Hmm?"

Li Chenzhou was stunned.

"We didn't see any cars passing by just now. Obviously, they were hijacked, which is why Grizzly Bear said there were a lot more cars!"

Duan Lei explained.

Li Chenzhou suddenly understood. He had been using the evolution potion and then looking at his attributes, so he hadn't paid attention to whether there were any cars coming from the opposite direction.

"These powerful guys must know that this disaster is global. So, they won't think about fleeing to other cities. They also want to build a base, so of course they have to gather some people!"

Li Chenzhou nodded and said:

"Moreover, building a base outside the city is the only way to survive in the apocalypse!"

When he said this, Li Chenzhou's tone was quite certain because his previous life had already verified this point.

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Duan Lei couldn't help but look at him with a strange look in his eyes. Perhaps Li Chenzhou himself didn't realize that although he said building a base was the only way, he had long claimed that he wanted to be a businessman.

However, thinking of the Space War Chariot, Duan Lei immediately understood. This was also the reason why he didn't show the kind of excitement that Grizzly Bear expected when he saw this armored vehicle.

"Grizzly Bear! Slow down, something's wrong over there!"

Because the road was clear, after a period of speeding, they finally approached the previous shopping mall. Li Chenzhou picked up the binoculars and looked over there, and hurriedly shouted to Grizzly Bear on the car intercom.

"What's wrong?"

Grizzly Bear was very committed to his promise and immediately stopped the car. Anyway, there were no cars on the road now, so there was no need to pull over.

"Look at the two o'clock direction!"

Li Chenzhou said, his face somewhat solemn. The direction he was talking about was the direction of Qin Ting Hotel.

"This...Captain and them..."

Hearing this, Grizzly Bear took the binoculars and looked over there. Suddenly, his face turned pale, the binoculars fell weakly to the ground, and he muttered to himself. Then, he suddenly went crazy and drove the armored vehicle towards that direction.

"Grizzly Bear! Stop! This situation doesn't necessarily mean that your captain and the others are dead. Observe first!"

Seeing this situation, Li Chenzhou was shocked and quickly picked up the intercom and shouted, while Duan Lei immediately drove after him...
